17Insincere Traits
From People Who
Claim To Be Sincere
1
1
People who are
there for all the
FREE stuff,
yet never
return the
favor - they
want to,
they're going
to… someday
2
2
Someone who
keeps
canceling
last minute
with the
wildest
excuses i.e. the car blew
up, the dog has
a fever, an aunt
from India just
arrived
3
3
The guy who says he is going to
do you a big favor
and then proceeds
to remind you on
occasion that he
doesn't have to do
it but he wants to
4
4
The person who
needs you to
do something
for them for
FREE
and they'll pay
you when their
ship comes in or
they win the
lottery
5
5
The guy who has a product the
world can't live without
and you'll get
paid back when
the big money
comes in
6
6They seem sincere,
you go out on a limb
and do the favor
understanding that
they have investors who are dropping
a wad of cash - you wait for what
seems forever - it never comes
7
7
People who say
'To tell you the
truth' repeatedly
as if they're
lying the rest
of the time and now they
need to point out
that this time it’s
the real truth
8
“Sincerity is the fulfillment of our
own nature, and to arrive at it we
need only follow our own true Self.
Sincerity is the beginning and
end of existence; without it,
nothing can endure.
Therefore the mature person values
sincerity above all things.”
― Tzu-ssu
9
8
Those who have an excuse for everything.
It's never their fault - the
rest of the world keeps
getting in their way
10
9
The guy
who wants
to do great
things with
you when
you call
him,
but don't
count on
him
calling
you
11
10
People who always let your calls go
to voicemail,
they're always too busy
but they expect you to
answer their calls
12
11
The guy or gal who delivers
their bad news in a text.
They don't
want to call
you because
they can't live
up to the truth
13
12Those people who
rely strictly
on email to
communicate
with you.
They don't want eye to
eye contact, they prefer
not to be exposed
14
13People who seem
uncomfortable with
looking into your
eyes,
they fidget with anything in sight to
avoid a direct and truthful conversation
15
“As we express
our gratitude, we
must never forget
that the highest
appreciation is
not to utter
words, but to live
by them.”
― John F.
Kennedy
16
14
People who screw up and don't apologize.
They know you
know, but they
don't want to
fess up!
They see it as a
weakness, not a strength
17
15Someone
that is too
busy is
someone
who is not
interested. We all make time for
the things that are
important to us
18
16The lady who
cancels a
meeting, and
another, and
another, always
with good
excuses -
is probably not
worth your time
anyway
19
17
The person who calls you only
when they need something.
They start by catching up as
if they really care and then….
boom
20
“Sincerity - if
you can fake
that, you've
got it made.”
― George
Burns
“Don't claim you're
sincere, just be it.”
― Eva Heller
“Sincerity makes the very least person to be of more value
than the most talented hypocrite.”
― Charles Spurgeon

Brink Thinking is centered around making the irrational rational. Many of
the best inventions and ideas that have impacted society today seemed
irrational until a Brink Thinker thought beyond the absurd. Imagination
helps provide meaning to experience and understanding to knowledge; it
is a fundamental faculty through which people make sense of the world.
Society benefits when imagination and absurdity collide.
